Anonymous are ready to go to war with Donald Trump

There's also advice on how Trump's phone could be hacked.

Two months after urging Donald Trump to bring an end to ‘strategic war games’, anonymous have taken further, more significant action against the US President.

Anonymous’ new call to action comes in the light of a number of controversial measures from the 45th President, including a travel ban on citizens of seven countries and the detention of individuals – including Green Card holders – at American airports.

And its ‘BDS the US’ campaign takes its name from the existing boycott against Israeli goods and services, standing for ‘Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions’.

The hacktivist group is urging American workers to strike and encouraging a boycott of certain goods, and even outlines a ‘simple’ process which would allow President Trump’s phone to be hacked.

“This is an open call to establish travel bans on United States citizens, boycott US made products, divest of US or Trump related business interests, and apply sanctions on the Trump regime and all of its associates. Until the danger the United States today possesses against the world is resolved,” Anonymous’ new call to action says, as per Metro.

“Reciprocity measures must be enacted against the United States to challenge its shameless actions under the Trump regime. Global response must also come in the form of economic sanctions on products directly associated with the Trump corporate brand.”

In the meantime, the group has been sharing photos from the protests against Trump’s Muslim Ban and his immigration policy in general, under the #NoBanNoWall hashtag.
